Roof-Reliant Landscaping™ Step 13A: Planning and Designing PHASE 1: Estimating Your Cost

by Nate Downey

Now that you have chosen a workable landscape design option, you can estimate the cost of your landscape installation project. The cost-estimating procedure presented in this manual is based on the categories of common roof-reliant landscape features that were outlined in the previous chapter, and it will enable you to calculate a reasonably accurate financial picture of your project.

Worksheet 3 will be provided in an upcoming blog for you to enter your cost estimates for the many aspects of your project. This worksheet was designed to be as inclusive as possible, so you may not need to fill in every box on Worksheet 3. Worksheet 4 will also be provided to give you a less detailed overview of your anticipated project costs. The additional information about some key categories provided in this chapter should assist you in filling out the worksheets.
